HI Morghan,
I recommend the Toyoko Inn Chain. Many of the hotels have a “Heartful Room” that is wheelchair accessible with shower/toilet. Very reasonable ((ABOUT 10,000 Yen) and as a bonus, they have a light breakfast buffet and washing machine / dryers in the lobby area. They are always close to a train station, so usually lots of restaurants and convenience store nearby. There’s one close to Disneyland that also provides a free shuttle. The Heartful Room B has 2 twin beds. I believe you can get another room for kids close by your room.
